Just as not all popular albums are wonderful, not all wonderful albums are popular. Proving the latter point is Fabulon's All Girls Are Pretty, a record that came nowhere near the Top 200 but sounds like a collection of wall-to-wall pop-funk chartbusters. Fabulon (Kevin Macbeth, a veteran of such Miami bands as Reagan's Dream and Sleep of Reason) plays most of the instruments on his studio-intensive debut, relying as much on guitars as synths, drum machines and samples. The songs artfully contrast simple and true romantic crises ("Yesterday I left you/Today I want you back") with unabashedly catchy-sweet melodies and danceable backing tracks, a case in point being the joyous opening number, "In a Mood," which quotes both "Venus" and "My Boyfriend's Back." The allusions don't stop there — "Wonderbus" samples "A Summer Place," "Crazy Little Girl" works in a little "Soul Man" and a rich vein of '70s AM pop (from Chicago to 10cc to the Spinners) runs all through the album. (And that's not counting a cover of the Association's "Cherish.") On the delectable "Say Anything," "A Walk Through the Desert" — indeed on virtually every song here — Fabulon grafts a fan's awareness of classic pop sensibilities onto music that's unmistakably rooted in club culture; besides a deep Princely streak, All Girls Are Pretty owes as much to house music as it does to the Beatles.
